    HELP!!! Greenhouse grow mites are back!!! flower week 4

    Yeah, I have 2 dogs and children. Unfortunately, the greenhouse cannot be completely sealed off, and also I would run the risk of mold if completely sealed off. It looks like the pest strips are not going to be an option for me. At this stage, I have decided not to use anything chemical. I am...

    Oh no!!! I'm so sorry about the damage. Possibly the water on the leaf, and the sunlight caused some burning too. Good luck, I hope they recover

    What is on the pest strips that kills the mites? Will it harm ALL the bugs, because I just unleashed 9000+ ladybugs in there. Also, they won't harm the plant in anyway or cause toxins to see p into the buds? Thank you btw

    HELP!!! Greenhouse grow mites are back!!! flower week 4

    Well, it does appear that your solution worked and possibly just burned the plant a little from the moisture being on the plant plus sunlight. It doesn't look too damaged though. It may heal and grow through that. Good to know you got the mites, and definitely a possibility for me to try during...

    HELP!!! Greenhouse grow mites are back!!! flower week 4

    Thank you. That's the problem with mine, they are inside a greenhouse, and they are packed in there. If I spray them down too much, I run the risk of getting mold, and I am not sure I want garlic tasting buds. A couple of mine are in FULL flower with huge colas right now. I did unleash 9000...

    Oh definitely do please!!! I am scared to use the dishsoap, but if the garlic solution helps and doesn't make your buds smell or taste garlicky, I will be down to try it. After aggressively removing a ton of small branches and unnecessary leaf yesterday, my arms are all bit up and super itchy...

    HELP!!! Greenhouse grow mites are back!!! flower week 4

    Thank you. I will definitely keep you posted. I feel that I have been doing well this year, but most definitely not a pro yet. I'm still learning and I'm glad I found this forum to help with my learning process. I went in their today and did some aggressive pruning and took everything that...

    HELP!!! Greenhouse grow mites are back!!! flower week 4

    Wow! She looks good. Looks a lot like my girl scout cookies. I filled the greenhouse with 100 bags of ace hardware garden soil (because I get a discount at ace from a family employee), and 100 bags of REDI grow. I have been using Fox Farms Grow big for veg, and Fox farms big bloom/tiger bloom...

    And lastly, a bud and leaves from the outer edges, as you can see, no mite damage there.

    HELP!!! Greenhouse grow mites are back!!! flower week 4

    These are my lower branches that I really don't want to remove, but have cleared as much from the inner parts as I can without actually removing the branches. I have never had a grow Luke this and NEVER expected my plants to get like this. They are literally TREES!!!

    HELP!!! Greenhouse grow mites are back!!! flower week 4

    Ok. I took several photos, but I think I can only upload one at a time. I'm new to this forum and still trying to figure out how it all works. This is a top bud. More photos to follow. Also, I have been trying to get rid of as much of the lower, and yellow as I can, but there is a lot there and...

    HELP!!! Greenhouse grow mites are back!!! flower week 4

    If the mites are doing real damage to the plant, is there a way to tell that the plant is not thriving through the infestation? For now, the plants are still doing amazing and are flowering beautifully. The outer portions of the plants still look amazing and I am only getting some slight...
